Chapter 118: It's just enjoyment

Batu's songs, Cao Wu didn't help too much, but spent a lot of thought on style indoctrination.

The style of these three songs is not just unique, but somewhat ahead of its time.

Among the three of them, even the most perceptive Qingsong changed it more than 20 times before he gradually found some feeling.

It's a bit of a difficult process, but the results are remarkable.

In the past six months, under the influence and guidance of Cao Wu, intentionally or unintentionally, the three Batu's understanding of music has begun to gradually surpass this era.

Lele is very talented and has a sense of music, and soon after joining the band to rehearse, Cao Wu found that her playing style had begun to lean towards pop-punk.

After Cao Wu taught her the theory of punk three chords, Lele had already written several very good punk songs.

Punk is a very simple, casual, popular form of music, and songs generally use only the most basic three-note chords, which can even be said to be a simplified version of rock music.

Many beginner bands like to say that they are punk bands, three or four people, can play a few chords, and the threshold is very low.

However, it would be a big mistake to underestimate punk because of this.

Punk is more of an attitude, it inherits the rebellious spirit of early rock 'n' roll, and it develops to be more extreme.

Punk represents defiance of all authority, counterculture and emancipation, and has even evolved into performance art.

This kind of "revolutionary" spirit is very much in line with the psychology of young people, and it is most likely to resonate with young people who have no right to speak, but it is not very suitable for the domestic environment.

And Lele is bound by experience and depth of thought in terms of lyrics, and it is still lacking for the time being, and it is easy to be covered by "Don't Come to Entangle Me" in the album.

Therefore, it is better to find a different path and take the path of a new style, which may make people shine.

Cao Wu, the arranger of Lele's song, helped a little, but the overall skeleton was built by Lele herself, and the lyrics were also written by her, which was essentially her original track.

A new style of niche music may not be easily accepted by the general public, but it will be easier to attract some niche music fans, and this kind of music fan will be much more sticky than the average music player.

Qing Song's knowledge of music theory is the most solid, and he is also the fastest at receiving new things.

He didn't ask Cao Wu any help for this song, and all the instruments were simulated with synthesizers.

This new arrangement mode seems to fit him very well, and although the whole song style is depressing, he does a very fulfilling job and is very happy.

When Batu was a child, his father forced him to practice the horse-head fiddle for a while, but he was not impressed by the hoarse hissing and switched to playing the drum kit.

However, just last month, he picked up the matouqin again, and was scolded by his father when he practiced at home, because he basically forgot all about his technique, and the sound he pulled out was better than killing chickens.

The reason why he picked up the horse-head qin again was because when Cao Wu asked him to try to write a song by himself, he used a synthesizer to simulate a piece of horse-head qin and sang a ballad from south to north, which instantly refreshed his cognition.

In his memory, the horse-head qin is often inseparable from the horses, sheep, and Genghis Khan sung in Mongolian, and it does not seem to keep pace with the times.

Every time I eat and drink at home, my father has to come for a while, and over time, he even feels a little dirty, which makes him feel bored.

But in this ballad demonstrated by Cao Wu, the horse-head qin that was like a stroke of genius made him appreciate the charm of the horse-head qin.

The shock of this inherent perception being shattered is very huge, and the consequence is that Batu is crazy obsessed with his own national music, which makes his father very surprised, and he can't understand why his son, who was coerced and lured when he was a child, and how his son, who couldn't beat him, suddenly changed his sex.

Batu found an old-fashioned Walkman, and took a lot of old tapes that his father kept at home, and took them with him, and took them out to listen to when he had nothing to do.

It was all traditional Mongolian music, and the musical instruments such as hoomai, long tune, hu ji, horse-head fiddle, mouth reed, etc., all made him realize what kind of world he had missed.

Those were memories imprinted in the deepest part of his soul and could never be erased.

Many people don't understand why ethnic minorities are so good at singing and dancing, as if they were born with musical cells.

That's because the concerts of our own nationality make people feel more belonging, just like the local sound, many people will feel cordial when they meet their fellow villagers in other places, and it is because of this sense of belonging.

Their three songs and Cao Wujia's new songs were all put to record at the end, and Yue Qianfan suggested recording the familiar old songs first.

To Yue Qianfan's surprise, except for the fact that Lele didn't find the feeling two days ago and was delayed for some time, the accompaniment of the first six songs was almost recorded at a rate of one a day.

What surprised him even more was Cao Wu's professionalism, even if he had already expected enough of it.

That guy is simply a professional sound engineer, and many times, he doesn't even have to speak, Cao Wu can understand what he means, and then make appropriate adjustments.

Moreover, his guitar is also like an old cannon that has been played for decades, extremely stable, and can barely get out of the studio no more than five times, which makes Yue Qianfan feel unfinished every time, which is too rare.

Halfway through the recording of "52 Hz", the accompaniment to the first six songs was made.

With accompaniment, the progress is greatly accelerated.

Cao Wu went into one studio alone to record and sing, and Lele and they recorded the instrumental accompaniment of other songs in another studio.

Anyway, Cao Wu recorded quickly, leave him two tracks, and add the guitar when the time comes.

However, after Cao Wu entered the shed, Yue Qianfan realized that he was surprised early, Cao Wu's singing skills were no less than his instrumental level, and even slightly exceeded.

Singing is not a thing that whoever has a high voice is powerful, and the most basic point of singing is pitch.

It doesn't matter what song you are, as a professional singer, at least you can't sing out of tune, right?

Cao Wu entered the studio for three days, and the sound was broken a few times, but the pitch was never missed once, this kind of skill is difficult for many senior singers to achieve.

Moreover, the pitch is only one aspect, and the comprehensiveness of Cao Wu's skills also surprised Yue Qianfan to the point of being a little numb.

Head voice, remix, thoracic resonance, breath control, vibrato, flower voice, treble, super treble...... There's no trick he can't do.

Recording such a singer is nothing short of a treat.

Only half of the recording work has passed, and Yue Qianfan has already determined that the status of the Black Hole Band will never be lower than the first line in the future, and it is even possible to rush to the master!

Moreover, he has also foreseen that the emergence of this album will be a big shock to both the market and the music industry.
